I played Pikmin New Play Control on the Wii and absolutely loved it! But I kept holding off on getting Pikmin 2 since I wanted to get the wii version. I hope they release a Pikmin trilogy for the U.

Pikmin 2 is amazing, I don't think you should hold off buying it - I've never tried 'New Play Control', but there was absolutely nothing wrong with the original control method. Just go for it!

I've only played the first one, it is pretty good but most of my Pikmin always died.

:DD
Can't wait.

YES!!!!

Pikmin was a big part of my childhood gaming, heck I still play it! Pikmin 2 is my favorite by far, but Pikmin 1 still is challenging.

I never got into the firs Pikmin, I always thought that time limit stopped you from really exploring.
But then the 2nd one came around and I totally ate it up. Hopefully the have some sweet hook like the 2nd one did.

-edit-
Oh and REAL co-op this time

My dad absolutely loved the Pikmin games. He always kicked me off the gamecube when he got home from the office. When I ran upstairs and told him they're finally making a 3rd game he said, "oh man, we're going to have to buy a new console and everything?" lol.

I agree, true co-op would be great, especially for my family. It would give my brothers and I a game to play with my dad that he arguably enjoys more than we do.

I never really got into Pikmin. I wonder if Co-Op would help...

Am I the only one who thinks Pikmin would look fantastic on the 3ds? Just look at pikmin one or 2. The leaves and brush? Don't they already look 3d to you? It would add so much in that aspect if they released a pikmin 3ds along with 3.

I played pikmin 1 after seeing it on luigi's mansion and i loved it. Just the idead of making an endless amount of pikmin to fight for you and collecting ship parts is cool but emporer bulblax had me running back and forth back to get more pikmin. At first I liked the idea of no time limit in Pikmin 2 but i always felt like there was no worries at all even if you get an extinction you can still gather more pikmin as long as you want which to me took the fun out of the game.
Pikmin 1- Race against time to find your ship parts, will you escape alive?

Pikmin 2- Gather treasure with all the time in the world, mabye we should nap.

It was still fun but i think in a game you have to worry about dieing to have fun otherwise it's like having infinite heatlh.

I never really liked the time constrictions of the first game. Although in retrospect it did add to the challenge and possibly even enjoyment of the game.

In Pikmin2 I worried all the damn time, sure, it's not game over if you loose all your Pikmin but bloody hell, the inclusion of so many bosses and having one in pretty much every dungeon scared me a fair bit. To be honest, I want there to be a bit more focus on finding new species and exploring in the 3rd game. In the second it's nice because you find more species and things, like the Cannon Beetle Larva, but it's a bit sad that you never get to see the full grown one outside of the first game. It'd be nice if after a while one of two the Cannon Beatles Larva grow up but they never did.

I think he was referring to Olimar as Pikmin there, which is worse than calling Samus "Metroid or Mario (Jumpman) Donkey Kong.
